yes, I do know everything....I just can't recall it all at once...

It's been a while, and I've very little to share. I've been working and cooking, and aside for a horde of zombie mushrooms there isn't much to share.

Yes, for those in the know, my house, Rancho Relaxo is still a home for homeless families....or just one as it is. This is not the first time I've taken in people less fortunate than my self, but I feel my charitable heart is fading. It seems like most everything is falling to pieces around me. Stacey got laid off, the microwave exploded, washer and dryer died less than 3 weeks apart, and numerous other small pains to deal with. I find comfort is this, with the knowledge that what ever inconvenience I'm dealing with, is nothing compared with the stress of having nothing, no home, job, car to find job, insurance, etc. I'm trying to stay positive, and not get caught up in my own personal selfishness, that my perfect little world is now disrupted.

Given the situation, I've not documented any new recipies, new watch or knife projects, or any other cool stuff...like my new top on the jeep. I do appreciate everyone trying to help out and sending prayers. I plan to have a huge post soon, stacked deep with fun bits.

Anyway, Craig called me out on FB about my pics, ie the bloody ones, or broken bones...so I'll post a few, but...BUT...he has to post the most horrific pic of the almost, nearly, not very life threatening wound he almost received today......

so, pics of blood and bones and such...lol...

i know, some of these we've seen before....but, that means I've lost less blood, so it's a good thing.

so, enough with that. I spent too much time and money modding my new toy, only to read today (I re-read the regs about SBR's in Alabama) that my toy is now very illegal.......crap....but we still had fun today shooting it, till the owner of the range came in. He knew it was me, I knew it was me...hell, the entire range knew it was me....with the "fast finger" and the owner put it. Anyway, he was cool and didn't kick us out and we had a nice hour of making noise and smoke....anyway, until next time. cheers and enjoy.

Snow in Alabama.......a rare sight indeed.

One of the very few times the talking heads on the T.V. called one right. It looked a mess early on, but was melted away by late afternoon. I tip my hat to the people who have to deal with this on a daily basis. I guess I could get used to it if necessary. I got called in to work about 11:00, but took a few pics around 9:00 just for fun.
